- Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication JP-A 5-216271 (1993) discloses electrophotographic toner that contains, with consideration for global environmental protection, resins obtained by esterifying or etherifying lignin and cellulose as components constituting the binder resin in the toner, and still has a sufficient anti-offset property and a low-temperature fixing property in fixing and causes no entanglement to a fixing roller.
- a contact heat fixing method represented by a heating roller and the like is often used and the fixing property of toner to the recording medium in this method is able to be indicated by an extent of a fixing non-offset range that is a temperature range capable of fixing between a minimum fixing temperature at which a low-temperature offset does not appear and a temperature at which a high-temperature offset starts to appear.
- toner having a wide fixing non-offset range use of a resin having a cross-linked structure as the binder resin contained in the toner and use of a resin including high-molecular-weight substances and low-molecular-weight substances are proposed.
- a ratio of the cross-linked components in the binder resin or the high-molecular-weight substances is increased to improve the anti-high-temperature offset property of the toner, melt viscosity of the binder resin is increased to make the low-temperature fixing property of the toner insufficient. Therefore, to obtain a toner having a wide fixing non-offset range, it is important that blending balance and physical properties of the resin components in the binder resin are controlled.

- a two-component developer containing a toner prepared in Examples 1 to 7 and the Comparative Examples 1 to 5 and a carrier was prepared.
- a carrier a ferrite core carrier of which the volume average particle size is 45 ⁇ m is used and mixed for twenty minutes by a V-type mixing unit mixer (trade name: V-5, manufactured by Tokuju Corporation) such that a covering rate of a toner to a carrier is 60%, thus preparing the two-component developer.
- the two-component developer prepared as described above was filled in an apparatus remodeling a copier (trade name: AR-620, manufactured by Sharp Corporation) that is an image forming apparatus.
- a copier trade name: AR-620, manufactured by Sharp Corporation
- recording paper trade name: PPC paper SF-4AM3, manufactured by Sharp Corporation
- an unfixed image was formed by adjusting a sample image including a rectangular solid image section of 20 mm long and 50 mm wide so that adhering amount of a toner to the recording paper in an unfixed state at a solid image section was 0.5 mg/cm 2 , and a fixed image was formed using an external fixing unit made by using a fixing section of the copier.
- Fixing process speed is set at 124 mm/sec, and temperature of a fixing roller is increased from 130° C.
- a minimum fixing temperature at which low-temperature offset does not appear and a temperature at which high-temperature offset starts to appear were observed.
- a temperature range capable of fixing between a minimum fixing temperature and a temperature at which a high-temperature offset starts to appear is referred to as a fixing non-offset range.
- the fixing non-offset range is at 50° C. or higher.
- the fixing non-offset range is at 40° C. or higher and lower than 50° C.
- the fixing non-offset range is at 30° C. or higher and lower than 40° C.
- the fixing non-offset range is at lower than 30° C.
- score was ‘3’ in a case where the evaluation of the fixing property was “Excellent”, the score was ‘2’ in the case of “Good”, the score was ‘1’ in the case of “Not bad”, and the score was ‘0’ in the case of “Poor”.
- the allowable range was 40° C. or higher.
- the allowable range was 30° C. or higher and lower than 40° C.
- Total score was calculated by summing up the score of the evaluation of the fixing property and the score of the evaluation of the rubbing resistance. Furthermore, the comprehensive evaluation was performed based on the flowing standards.
